"John booker routledge, pursuant to the north carolina statute section 14, you are charged with murder in the first degree with aggravated circumstances"
is this hell? like some cruel, mean, not funny joke? somewhere in the libo where you don't know where to go? like where you want to scream and cry and you are not allowed to? did we hit rock bottom? no, never say that, i remember big john telling us that when you hit rock bottom you can always go lower and that was probably true
"if convicted, the maximum sentence would be the death penalty"
the whole crowd gasped and the pogues looked around, everyone moving in shock. sarah felt like she couldn't breath as she squeezed jo's hand
jj stood up with anger in his eyes "your honor, he's seventeen!"
"quite"
jj kept yelling as pope tried to push him out of the court "john b, we're gonna figure it out!"
sarah tried to walk towards john b crying the leaving shit out of herself. jo and kie stopped her as a officer pushed her back "don't touch her!"
all the people walked out of the court, jo's arm wrapped around sarah shoulders trying to keep her steady on her feet
"justice is served"
"he had it coming"
"is this a joke? like, are we in hell or...?" kie said as they walked out of the court
"i should have never come home" sarah said
"they are gonna kill him, guys. i know it" jj said
"so sorry for what you and your family have gone through. thank god the system works" the pogues heard a man say to ward and rose
"can you please shut up?" kie yelled, anger filling her body even more "of course you think the system worked because it was made to protect you and people like you!"
"he'll have is day in court. a jury will decide" a man said
"he shouldn't even be in court!" jo yelled
"you should" kie yelled pointing at ward "because you're a murderer. you have a lot of nerve showing up to court"
